Homology-dependent gene silencing in plants and fungi: a number of variations on the same theme
Curr Opin Microbiol.
1999 Dec.
Abstract
Homology-dependent gene silencing is a phenomenon that occurs in a broad range of organisms and has implications for both basic and applied science. Gene silencing is a mechanism that controls invading transposons and provides protection against virus infections. It also has evolutionary implications in genome maintenance. Recent studies have begun to unravel the molecular mechanisms of this puzzling phenomenon.
